In the first collection of Paradise on Earth with Words, poet Eric Scott Grand celebrates those liminal spaces where humankind meets deep blue sea. Baptized by the great Pacific Ocean, Grand's words praise all the warm, bright gifts that wash up here in their stream-of-consciousness tidal flow. From beach days and surfing to wondrous animal-life to dreams of mermaids, these freewheeling poems populate an oceanic paradise that calls out to the author and his readers alike. This book is a signed and sealed invitation to a place you'll never want to leave.

Poems in Paradise Out Of Words originate from a continuous flow of thoughts. Here, in this compilation of 50 poems, Paraj, a teenager, has touched various aspects of lie and nature with utmost simplicity. Right from the search for self-identity, she enters life itself, where she is fascinated by a number of thoughts as she comes across them. Her imagination has no bounds. Sometimes, she wants to search world across the sky; the next moment, she gets lost in wilderness. Then, she embraces mother-nature with open arms and enjoys its every form. Heavenly stars and night sky seem to be her first love. Her philosophical outlook is impressive and far ahead of her age. She concludes with her new style of reversible poems. While reading her poems, one travels through her ‘Paradise’ along with her and comes back awestruck.

This collection's title points to the underlying philosophy expressed in these poems: that earthly joy is, or ought to be, just within, but is often beyond our reach, denied by racism, misogyny, physical cruelty and those with the class power to deny others their share of worldly goods and pleasures.

The Words is the first volume of the Risale-i Nur and consists of thirty-three independent parts or Words, which explain and prove aspects of the fundamental matters of belief. These consist of such matters as God s existence and unity, the manifestation of the Divine Names and attributes in creation, the resurrection of the dead and the hereafter, prophethood, the miraculousness of the Qur’an, the angels, the immortality of man s spirit, Divine Determining (fate or destiny), together with such questions as the true nature of man and the universe, and man s need to worship God. Each subject is explained with comparisons and allegories, and demonstrated with reasoned arguments and logical proofs. The most profound aspects of the truths of belief, which were formerly studied only by advanced scholars, are explained in such a way that everyone, even those to whom the subject is new, may understand without difficulty. This work answers brilliantly the attacks made on the Qur’an in the name of science and philosophy, and demonstrates the rationality of belief in God and logical absurdity of denial. It shows too that man s happiness and salvation both in this world and the next lie only in belief in God and knowledge of God.

Jo is in a strange new country for university and having a more peculiar time than most. In a house with no walls, shared with a woman who has no boundaries, she finds her strange home coming to life in unimaginable ways.
